Subject: [ patch -mm1 04/11 ] gpio-patchset-fixups: request-region
Date: Thu, 22 Jun 2006 12:51:08 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <449AE69C.1040404@gmail.com> (raw)
diff.13-fix-request-region
Usage of request_region() was wrong ( returns 0 on error - docpatch sent
to trivial ).
This fixes it, and clarifies the err-msg.
